Surface-Active Antifungal Polyquaternary Amine

Biomacromolecules, 2006
There is a distinct need for antimicrobial compounds that can act at surfaces without leaching into the environment. Such materials should be easy to synthesize, be easy to apply to surfaces, and display reasonable levels of antimicrobial and antifungal activity. Here we describe such a surface-active compound and demonstrate its ability to inhibit the

Immunomodulating Activity of Antifungal Drugs

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1993
1. The immunomodulating activity of antifungal drugs was reviewed. Although results are conflicting, all azole drugs tend to be immunosuppressive, except for fluconazole, which has no immunologic effect. In contrast, the polyene antibiotic amphotericin B (AMPH) is immunostimulatory. 2. AMPH induced host resistance to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in

Antifungal activity of substituted aurones

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2017
Novel antifungals are in high demand as there is a growing resistance to antifungals currently in use. In particular, opportunistic fungal infections caused by Candida spp. are on the rise with infections by this genus accounting for the most severe fungal infections following chemotherapy, implantation procedures, and in patients with HIV/AIDS.

Antifungal activity of some tetranortriterpenoids

Fitoterapia, 2000
Natural tetranortriterpenoids such as cedrelone from Toona ciliata, azadiradione from Azadirachta indica, limonin, limonol and nomilinic acid from Citrus medica, along with some cedrelone derivatives were tested for their antifungal activity against Puccinia arachidis, a groundnut rust pathogen.

Antifungal Activity of Crown Ethers

Journal of Inclusion Phenomena, 1984
Some crown ethers were found to show significant antifungal activity against some wood-decay fungi, phytopathogenic fungi and eumycetes,Trichophytons for dermatomycosis. Their toxicity was evaluated by the paper disc method as well as by determining the values of ED50, i.e., the concentration which inhibits the mycelium growth by 50%.

Antifungal activity of octyl gallate

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2002
Antifungal activities of propyl (C3), octyl (C8) and dodecyl (C12) gallates (3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate) were tested against Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC7754 and Zygosaccharomyces bailii ATCC 60483. Octyl gallate was found to be the only active compound with the minimum fungicidal concentration of 25 microg/ml (89 microM) against S. cerevisiae and of 50

Conjugated Polymers for Light‐Activated Antifungal Activity

Small, 2012
A cationic polythiophene-porphyrin (PTP) dyad is shown to exhibit efficient light-activated antifungal activity. Higher singlet oxygen (¹O₂) generation efficiency can be attained from PTP upon photoexcitation due to the light-harvesting properties of the polymer backbone and efficient energy transfer from the polythiophene to the porphyrin units.

Antifungal activity of Wickerhamomyces silvicola

Microbiology, 2015
Wickerhamomyces silvicola strain Y-178 was shown to secrete a mycocin with a fungicidal effect. It exhibits the highest activity at pH 4.5 and elevated ambient osmotic pressure. Over 140 species belonging to 45 genera of ascomycetous yeasts were sensitive to the mycocin, while basidiomycetous species were resistant.

Hydroxytyrosol Expresses Antifungal Activity In Vitro

Current Drug Targets, 2013
Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a potent antioxidant found in olive oil and leaves. Using several in vitro approaches, we tested antifungal activity of HT. HT showed broad spectrum of antifungal activity against medically important yeasts and dermatophyte strains with MIC values ranging between 97.6 µgml⁻¹ and 6.25 mgml⁻¹.

Guaianolides from Centaurea nicolai: antifungal activity

Phytochemistry, 1999
A new guaianolide, 3-deacetyl-9-O-acetylsalograviolide A, along with four known closely related lactones, salograviolide A, 9-O-acetylsalograviolide A, kandavanolide and salograviolide B were detected in the aerial parts of the flowering plant Centaurea nicolai.
